Drone-Escorted Buses Evacuate Hundreds Of Americans To Port Sudan

Following expressions of shock and disgust by Americans disappointed that the Biden administration wasn’t facilitating their evacuation from war-torn Sudan, two bus convoys ferried Americans to the safer city of Port Sudan on the country’s Red Sea coast over the weekend. 

In the first convoy, buses traveled more than 500 miles under the protection of armed U.S. drones. However, from Port Sudan, Americans are left to find tickets on boats making the voyage across the Red Sea to the Saudi city of Jeddah — a trip that, by ferry, takes about 12 hours.
